Emily's POV“Breathe, Emily, breathe” Amelia my werewolf tried to calm me as I paced frantically back and forth in front of the vanity mirror in my room. “Breath, Emily, it's alright” she repeated silently, I could imagine her wearing a comforting smile on her face. I took one deep breath after another trying desperately to calm myself down.Immediately I heard that crashing sound followed by angry screams from the King, I ran. Afraid that he would change his mind and come after me this time.But as the minutes went by I was suddenly wondering if he was okay and if it was the right decision I made.“Just go to bed. Everything will be alright”“You don't know that! He said he was going to punish me!”I snapped at my wolf as if she was the cause of my problem.It was surprising how I slept that night and when I woke up the next day, I almost died from anxiety and I stayed in my room all day.I didn't hear from the King, not even the day that followed. Today I decided to go help out in

Emily's POVI think Alfred was stunned by my question because he spent what I thought was an eternity staring at me with wide eyes before shaking his head in denial and smiling weakly. “Oh…” He muttered quietly. “The King is in the castle, he's just locked up somewhere, keeping himself busy…”I don't know if it was the way Alfred said that without looking into my eyes or if it was his lack of confidence but something felt wrong with me just imagining the King away from his royal duties for that long. It seemed like a bad idea to keep himself trapped in there as far away as possible, especially when I had a feeling the castle itself could be the next place on the list for his 'busy'. So, despite all logic, I decided to ask.“He has been around the whole time, he didn't go on a trip?” I pressed further, my mind whirring with possibilities as I wondered if Alfred had missed something. Maybe there would be some kind of secret passageway that I hadn't noticed before. Or maybe I was missi

Emily's POVThe fall didn't come, instead, a pair of hands wrapped themselves securely around my waist, pulling me tightly against their chest. I felt arms encircle my torso, keeping me firmly in place as my head fell against the broad chest in front of me. After regaining my senses, I lifted my head up to meet his gaze which was staring intently at me.I don't know how the soup had managed to survive, and I don't know anything that had happened but it was almost like a miracle.When I stared down at my legs when I felt something warm running down my shin. I knew instantly what happened even before I saw the stain on the floor, the red liquid slowly flowing down under my foot only proved one thing, I had stepped on one of the broken pieces of glass.His gaze traveled down to the pool of blood growing around my feet.His eyebrows pinched together in confusion. “Fuck” I heard him mutter but his breath reeked of alcohol and I am sick of saying I almost leaned in to taste it off his ton

Luka's POV“Why the hell will you push her like that?” my wolf yelled at me after I slammed the door shut behind me.“Shut the hell up! just shut up” I yelled pressing my hands against my ears as if it would make him stop talking. He snarleable d but I was too angry to care. “You don’t know how hard it is to keep myself together without her.”It hadn't been easy. Ever since she left- died, I couldn't imagine how a world without her in it could be anything other than bleak and lonely. I never told anyone this but when you love someone so fiercely there's nothing left of what you once were before them. It all becomes your whole existence.I missed Portia.“She was never yours to begin with,” my Wolf countered.“Damn you!”“We have a mate, we should be focused on her” he growled.“All I want is Portia. Why can't you understand that?” I yelled.“You have a mate!” “Damn her! damn you! damn the goddess” I screamed and threw the nearest object which happened to be a vase at the wall. The gla
Another Chance Chapter Thirty-nine
Emily’s POVIt was the most dreadful night of my entire life, I don't think I had ever panicked so much in all of my nineteen years of living. I couldn't focus on anything, every sound and every feeling felt like a thousand needles were stabbing me at once. My heart was beating fast against my chest, and for a second I thought it would jump out of my mouth and fall back into it.It was the night of the gala.Surprisingly, Claire said the king had sent someone over for my makeup.I didn’t know it would take almost forever to make me look pretty, but when I saw what the makeup artist had done, I understood why. “Aren't you going to wear the dress, my dear?”Claire’s voice made me jump as I realized she was standing behind me the whole time.“I am scared,” I told her truthfully, not even trying to hide the emotion in my tone as I turned around and looked at her. “I'm so scared.”“Trust me when I say you'll do just fine” she assured me with a gentle smile.“Now get changed! I can't have any
Another Chance Chapter Forty
Luka's POVI knew that the green dress would be perfect for her, I just knew. As she walked toward me beside Alfred, for a brief moment my senses left me and my wolf took control admiring its mate.Nothing could prepare me for how that dress clung to her like a second skin and highlighted every trace of curves and hips that I was never aware she had . My gaze lingered on her face for too long more than it should ever have as I tried to process that it was real. The makeup artist did a great job as the makeup Emily wore tonight made her eyes shine with an emotion I hadn’t seen in ages, and I could not place.“We should go, we are running late,” I told her like I wasn't just staring at her.She followed me and the silence that followed through the ride was deafening, as if all the noise from cars and chatter had muted in this instant, and all that was left were our breaths.I could feel her glancing at me from time to time and I almost lost it. The urge to snap at her and ask her what s

Emily’s POVWhen we returned to our seats, I couldn't use concentrate on anything else that was going on around me, not that it made a difference.From time to time, I could feel the king’s gaze on me, it made me uncomfortable and what was worse was that when I looked up, I couldn't find any trace of Father but I could tell he was lurking around somewhere in the dark ready to pounce on me like some sort of rabid animal at any moment. He had already done that for more than half the years of my existence.My heart was thumping erratically inside my chest, I was having trouble focusing. I was starting to feel dizzy and I stopped moving.“I. I n..need to use the... the restroom.” I stuttered miserably and I hurried off without waiting for his response.I could feel a few curious glances on me as I made that dramatic getaway.It took forever because it was a big building, and I found it hard to locate the restroom and when I finally did, I rushed in hoping that it would drown my anxiety.
Another Chance Chapter forty-Two
Luka’s POVShe sat at the farthest end of the car with her head out of the window, staring off into space. Maybe it was the moon beating down harshly on the back of her neck and making it uncomfortable for her to stay still in this confined area for any length of time. But I know that wasn't a thing and it was because of what had happened.I wanted to ask her if she was okay but I decided against it. Once we got back to the castle, we walked inside quietly.I saw Alfred with the telephone and I knew he must have heard what happened.“Is everything alright your Majesty?” he asked as his eyes roamed our bodies searching for any sign of injury. “Are you all right?” He glanced at Emily, his gaze lingered on her cheek where that monster had left his fingerprint before glancing away, as though he was looking for answers from her face rather than mine. “We are fine Alfred, it was nothing I couldn't handle” I assured him.I turned to Emily “I should see you off to your room” I told h
